This technical bulletin is intended as a guide for authorized service personnel installing or servicing BASO Gas products. Carefully follow all instructions in this bulletin and all instructions on the appliance. Limit repairs, adjustments, and servicing to the operations listed in this bulletin or on the appliance. WARNING: Fire or Explosion Hazard. The system must meet all applicable codes. Improper installation may cause gas leaks, explosions, property damage, and injuries. WARNING: Fire or Explosion Hazard. To prevent leakage of upstream gas, shut off the gas supply at the main manual shutoff valve before installing or servicing the VLV valve. ! CAUTION: Equipment Damage Hazard. To prevent damage to the valve when mounting to the manifold, do not use a wrench on any surface other than the casting flats provided at the inlet and outlet ends of the valve body. ! CAUTION: Equipment Damage Hazard. Label all wires prior to disconnection when replacing the valve. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation. Verify proper operation after servicing. Perform the following procedure to install the replacement VLV49A valve. 6 1. Turn off power to the appliance. 2. Turn off the gas at the manual shutoff valve adjacent to the appliance. (If the manual shutoff valve services more than one appliance, be sure to light the other pilots before leaving.) 3. With the gas and power to the appliance turned off, disconnect the power supply (transformer) and the thermostat lead wire at the ignition control. VLV49A Series Universal Replacement Gas Valve Technical Bulletin 4. 5. 6. Disconnect the sensing probe lead from Terminal 4 on the ignition control. Disconnect the high voltage cable from the spark transformer. Disconnect the Pilot Valve 1 and Main Valve 3 leads from the terminal board or end plug-in Heyco terminals (see Figures 2 and 3). Terminal Board Connections Ground Terminals Figure 2: Terminal Board Ignition Control with Mounting Plate Ground Terminals Heyco Terminal Connections Figure 3: Plug-in Heyco Ignition Control VLV49A Series Universal Replacement Gas Valve Technical Bulletin 7 7. 8. 9. Remove Screws A and B holding the ignition control assembly to the valve and plate assembly (see Figure 1). These two screws are located on the bottom surface of the ignition control assembly. Remove the ignition control. Disconnect the pilot burner tubing from the pilot tap connection on the gas valve (see Figure 1). 10. Verify (when looking on the inlet of the valve) that the location of the grommet and wire leads on the old valve and new replacement valve are on the same side. If they are not on the same side, remove the grommet of the new replacement valve and insert it into the other side of the mounting plate (see Figure 4). This allows the placement of the ignition control spark transformer over the outlet of the valve instead of the inlet. Remove grommet and wires from here. Removable Portion of Mounting Plate Removable Portion of Mounting Plate Replace grommet and wires here. Figure 4: Grommet Locations 11. Remove the old valve from the manifold and install the new replacement valve. Ensure the gas flows through the valve body in the direction indicated by the arrow on the valve body. If the valve is installed with the gas flow opposite the arrow, leakage can occur. A thread lubricant has been factory applied to the first two or three threads of the valve inlet and outlet to avoid galling. Use an approved pipe-joint sealing compound on male threads before assembling. Take care that excess compound does not work into the valve and get onto the valve seats. Threads of pipe and nipples must be smooth and free of tears and burrs. 12. Reconnect the pilot burner tubing at the pilot tap connection. 13. Fasten the ignition control assembly to the valve and plate assembly with the screws provided with the replacement valve. 14. Break off the portion of the plate that protrudes if it interferes with surrounding surfaces (see Figure 4). 8 VLV49A Series Universal Replacement Gas Valve Technical Bulletin 15. Reconnect the thermostat leads, the sensing probe lead, and the high voltage cable according to the labels on the wires. Do not connect the electrical supply at this time. a. On grounded versions (part numbers ending with the letters H, L, G, or J [e.g., G60QBG or G60QBJ]), connect the black lead wire to one of the ground terminals on the ignition control. Four ground spade terminals are located just below the terminal board on terminal board models (see Figure 2) or in a square arrangement on the end of the plug-in Heyco models (see Figure 3). On ungrounded versions (part numbers ending with a K [e.g., G60QBK]), connect the black lead wire to Terminal 5 on the ignition control. On systems using G600 ignition controls, connect the black lead wire to a ground terminal on the ignition control. b. Connect the blue lead wire to Terminal 1 on the ignition control. IMPORTANT: To permit verification of pilot operation, do not connect the red lead wire to any terminal at this time. 16. Check for leakage. a. Open the pressure connection between the manual shutoff valve and the VLV valve. b. Connect air tubing with a maximum pressure of 1-1/2 times the valve’s maximum operating pressure (as indicated on the valve) to the opened pressure connection. c. Paint all valve body connections with a rich soap and water solution. If bubbles occur, this is an indication of a leak. To stop a leak, tighten joints and connections. Replace the part if the leak cannot be stopped. If bubbles do not occur, remove the air tubing and close the pressure connection. VLV49A Series Universal Replacement Gas Valve Technical Bulletin 9 17. After installation of the replacement valve is complete, except for the attachment of the red lead wire, turn on the gas at the manual shutoff valve. a. Reconnect the power supply lead wire to the ignition control and turn the power On. b. Set the thermostat to the highest setting. The pilot valve will open, spark will be energized, and the pilot will light. c. Test for gas leaks in the pilot line with a soap solution. d. After the check is complete, turn off the power and connect the red lead wire to Terminal 3 on the ignition control. 18. Turn on the power and set the thermostat to the desired setting. 10 VLV49A Series Universal Replacement Gas Valve Technical Bulletin Regulator Adjustment IMPORTANT: ! All adjustments must be made in conjunction with the gas appliance and in accordance with the appliance manufacturer’s instruction. Only authorized personnel should make adjustments. WARNING: Explosion Hazard. The minimum flow rate of the valve must not be adjusted below the minimum safe working rate of the appliance. The pressure regulator is adjustable and has been factory set. If a different setting is desired, follow these instructions. 1. Shut off all gas to the appliance. 2. Turn the thermostat to the lowest setting or Off position. 3. Remove the pressure tap plug at the valve outlet or in the manifold pipe downstream of the valve. 4. Install a manometer or pressure gauge suitable for measuring the desired orifice pressure. 5. Remove the seal screw at the end of the regulator stack. 6. Turn the gas on and place the thermostat at the highest setting to cycle the ignition system. 7. Allow the system to stabilize. Adjust the screw in the regulator stack to the desired reading on the manometer. (Turn clockwise to increase the outlet pressure and counterclockwise to reduce the outlet pressure.) 8. Reinstall the seal screw, which incorporates the proper size hole for venting to the atmosphere. (It may be necessary to cycle the valve several times to verify the desired outlet pressure.) 9. Turn off the gas supply and place the thermostat at the lowest setting. 10. Remove the pressure manometer and reinstall the pressure tap plug. 11. Turn the gas on and set the thermostat to the desired setting. 12. Check for leaks at the pressure tap plug with a soap solution before leaving the site.
